Selling and Letting in Shirley since 1998

We are very proud of our recently refurbished, modern Shirley office that stands out as one of the premier positions in Shirley to showcase your property. An eye-catching double-fronted corner office just like its sister branch in West Wickham. Pop in for a friendly chat about any of your property needs and be assured of a warm welcome.

We opened in Shirley when we acquired the established and highly regarded estate agent, R.W Johnson. We were then based in the historic Thatch Cottage before moving to the much larger double-fronted corner offices virtually opposite.
